simple c 's printf problem in mandrake8.0

[Andrew Pinski]

It is not because of the compiler but because of the libc library
does not flush at the end of the program which I consider a bug.
But this is OT for this list.

Thanks,
Andrew Pinski

PS MDK8.0 and RedHat7.1's compilers are junk update them to at least 3.0
